MicroRNAs are short, noncoding RNAs that play important roles in post-transcriptional gene regulation.Although many functions of microRNAs in plants and animals have been revealed in recent years, the transcriptional mechanism of microRNA genes is not well-understood.To elucidate the transcriptional regulation of microRNA genes, we study and charac
Programmes to prepare siblings for future roles to support their brother or sister with a neurodisability: protocol of a scoping review
Introduction Siblings share a lifelong bond in their relationship, and they may choose to provide support to their brother or sister with a neurodisability.Previous reviews summarised programmes that only focused on the behavioural, emotional and psychological outcomes of the siblings.There is a need to synthesise existing evidence and enhance our
3D modeling of laser-scanned trees based on skeleton refined extraction
Laser point cloud provides a high-precision data source for the 3D model reconstruction of existing trees.However, due to the complexity of tree structure and the data missing of point cloud, it is difficult to reconstruct complete, detailed and accurate 3D tree models from discrete points, especially the points are incomplete due to single-view sc
Exploitation of other social amoebae by Dictyostelium caveatum.
Dictyostelium amoebae faced with starvation trigger a developmental program during which many cells aggregate and form fruiting bodies that consist of a ball of spores held aloft by a thin stalk.This developmental strategy is open to several forms of exploitation, ador 3d allure massage chair including the remarkable case of Dictyostelium caveatum,
